81 Preston Point Road, East Fremantle WA 6158

NORTH FACING RIVERFRONT LANDMARK WITH SPECTACULAR 180 DEGREE VIEWS

Perched on bushland reserve rising from Riverside Road, this north-facing landmark home on 1136sqm land offers spectacular views and a rare opportunity to purchase a property that appears to hover above the river: look straight out across the water to North Fremantle and around to Mosman Park and south to the signal station on Cantonment Hill and to the port cranes.

Sheltered from the wind and facing north, the boating life of this special part of the river offers a fascinating panorama, embraced by the curving walls and windows and wide terraces that are such a feature of this expansive home.

Enter down a long driveway from Preston Point Road to the river end, and discover the Mediterranean curves that mark the architecture. Double door entry leads to a “bridge” crossing a lofty void and looking down to the pool below. An elegant office also seems to float above the pool, with curved windows and the fine bespoke timber cabinetry which adds quality to the interiors throughout.

Designed to maximise the magnificent location, the kitchen, living, dining and bedroom zones all face the water. Polished granite floors add cool luxury, and you step out from the dining space to a vast terrace: roofed alfresco for outdoor dining, plus an open deck for lounging in the sun. Three bedrooms all have spectacular views and terrace access, including the luxurious master suite. This is an expansive retreat, with large walk-through robe and large en-suite including curved shower and spa bath.

In 2022, health retreats have come into their own so the lower floor offers an enviable opportunity to maximise your health from home. Downstairs reveals another fabulous zone for the good life by the river: a vast timber-ceiling space with tropical plantings, a pool large enough for laps, sauna, shower, powder room, plenty of room for gym equipment and substantial granite and timber bar – perfect for whipping up healthy juices and the occasional cocktail! A wall of glass sliding doors opens to the large lower level limestone-walled terrace with glorious river views.

The garage accommodates three cars, with a glass-walled room for a gym, or a second home office with easy visitor access. If you want an alternative to the curving stairs, there is already room for the installation of a lift.

Go boating, fishing, walking, canoeing, cycling, choose to dine at fine waterside restaurants, or welcome family and friends home to entertain in the view. With the seclusion of being perched above it all, here by the river is simply the best place to live.
